Beverly Joubert Instagram – For many years, our beloved Smokey – star of our film Soul of the Cat – was a constant presence in our home. Wise, affectionate but independent, and always watching the world with a quiet curiosity, she harboured a wildness behind those soft jade eyes – a quintessential quality that we’ve witnessed many times before in the wild cats that we have spent decades documenting. Today, on #NationalLoveYourPetDay, we’re reminded of the incredible impact Smokey had on our lives. She may be gone, but sharing our home with Smokey provided a special window into the mysterious world of cats and only increased our fascination with them.
Our pets rely on us for care, just as wild animals rely on us for protection. Across Africa, big cats like lions and leopards face immense threats – from habitat loss to poaching. They may not curl up on our laps, but they are just as deserving of our love and protection.
To support their future, we’ve launched a fundraiser for the @GreatPlainsFoundation’s Big Cats Initiative – a crucial conservation program @DereckJoubert and I founded to protect these apex predators and the ecosystems they call home. From now until May, I am offering six limited-edition fine art prints to support the initiative. 100% of the proceeds will go toward critical conservation efforts.
